How to preserve Basil

If you have been growing basil and wish to preserve some for further use, you can pick off the leaves, dry them out and make a wonderful basil and tomato salt. I try to dry them in the sun, when its possible, or otherwise place in your warming drawer when cooking in the oven and allow to dry. Use baby tomatoes, either out of your garden, or try and buy them organic, cut them in bits and also dry in the sun if possible or in the warming drawer. Once they are dry, add them to Himilayan Salt or any salt that is organic or additive and pollution free. Remember to try and allow one basil plant or stem to go to seed so that you can sow again in spring.

Another way to preserve your basil leaves, is to place in a bottle and cover with olive oil. It makes a wonderful drizzle to pour over tomatoes.
